Verdict

This contest can go the way of the hat-trick-seeking PEARL WARRIOR. The Dunaden gelding can follow up wins at Sligo and Tramore earlier this month making it three-in-row at the expense of Followme Followyou for trainer Jack Dawson and the Joseph O'Brien-trained Royal Aide in a race where it appears difficult to make a case for many to bother the main protagonists.
  1. Pearl Warrior
  2. Followme Followyou
